Forced out for dating employee (1 Viewer)

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

I’ve seen first hand employees who’ve gone out of their way to sleep with senior people who have then forced their line manager to promote and / or offer top bonus payments

I'm not saying it doesn't happen and probably more often that genuine long term relationships sadly. But like I say it shows a poor general opinion of your employees if you think all the management are trying to take advantage of their subordinates and all the subordinates are trying to sleep with the boss for a raise/promotion.

It feels like the genuine people are being punished by having to chose their partner or their career.

It’s also to prevent rapid acceleration in a company of third rate employees who are fast tracked as the boss is banging them

This happened at my place of work recently where a fairly pretty young lady got promoted as she was being banged by a very senior person who was old and ugly.

A nice thought but I am not senior she would have been wasting her time with me.

We had two employees in our division who were married to each other.
Then the guy got promoted, so he was technically over his spouse.
Even though there was no direct reporting relationship between them, she had to move to another division.
They are both still employed by the agency, just in separate divisions with no reporting relationship.
This is considered quite acceptable.

I remember going for my first teaching job. By total coincidence my partner at the time had also applied and got the job a few days beforehand. I didn’t want to mention it at interview but when they offered me the role at the end I said “I’d love to but just want you to know you employed my partner last week”

“Oh don’t worry about that, half the staff are seeing each other” was the heads reply

According to an analysis by executive-compensation experts at Equilar, Easterbrook's exit package totals $41.8 million, which includes six months of severance pay, shares he can cash out in the future and other equity. And that amount is in addition to $23.8 million in stock options that Easterbrook can exercise now.

Actually, is it unusual/refreshing that it wasn’t the junior woman who was forced to leave?
